and other tales from Equals One
Equals One, or “ = 1”, is the shortest possible formula to remind us that behind the multiplicity of appearances is an essential Oneness of things and behind the duality of our modern life, behind the I and the you – man and god –, is this Oneness which reconciles all things, all conflicts, a One which gives meaning to all events. Is this consciousness a special consciousness? No, simply consciousness. You can do nothing without involving the whole universe. To be aware of all your space-time relationships is to be conscious. If you remember the garden of Oneness in which we lived at the beginning of time and can live in it again, you will enjoy reading = 1.
